Originally published at: Boosting Custom ROS Graphs Using NVIDIA Isaac Transport for ROS | NVIDIA Technical Blog
NVIDIA Isaac Transport for ROS (NITROS) is the implementation of two hardware-acceleration features introduced with ROS 2 Humble-type adaptation and type negotiation. Type adaptation enables ROS nodes to work in a data format optimized for specific hardware accelerators. The adapted type is used by processing graphs to eliminate memory copies between the CPU and the…
Try leveraging NITROS in your robotics applications to speed up perception tasks! I used it to perform object detection using Isaac ROS DNN Inference and YOLOv8. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know here.
